We were very impressed by the appearance of the Lord Nelson Hotel upon arrival for a 2-day business trip. Parking was included with the room (a nice perk), and we were informed that we would have a suite. The rooms were nice and clean, wtih comfortable beds. The 'suite' was only a slightly larger room with sitting area (not a... more

We stayed here for 5 nights in October 2007. The lobby and the front of the hotel are beautiful- classic older hotels with marble floors, inlaid decor etc. The hotel is in a perfect location within walking distance to attractions and across form the park. The room we stayed in was nice enough, the bed was comfortable however we were... more

I stayed at the Lord Nelson in June 2007 for business purposes. I booked a room through a travel agent that bulk buys a number of rooms and it was one of the more expensive hotels that I stayed in while traveling across Canada. The first room I stayed in was average, had a damp smell and worse of all... more

Lovely hotel in good area. All rooms at the back overlook an A/C unit that I think doesn't belong to the hotel. Even though there is double glazing it can be noisy for some rroms. We asked to be moved and were put on the side away from it. more

We were more than happy with our stay at the Lord Nelson. We stayed before 2 years ago and were keen to return given the locality. Its perfect for sightseeing, eating out and shopping. We were especially pleased with the over sized room on the 9th floor with a fab view of Citadel Hill! After a 4 night stay in... more

When we arrived, we were told that we were randomly selected for a free upgrade which we accepted, of course. But we think that we would have been happier if we didn't upgrade, because we got sent to a condo building down the block. It was a large, clean condo unit (with washer & dryer and full kitchen), but the... more

Whenever I am in Halifax I try and stay at the Lord Nelson. The location is great for shopping, restaurants & sightseeing. The service was excellent and the accommodations were very comfortable and well worth the price of the room. I can't wait to stay at the Lord Nelson on my next visit!!! more

Grand entrance plenty of teak, marble and brass to give it a regal feel but; the gate to the hotel parking was broken, the ice machine on our floor was broken, there was no fridge in the room and the pillows are very hard. The hotel parking is shared with other hotels and apartments, it's very crowded and cars are... more
